Sheets

Collaborative, smart, secure spreadsheets for fast-moving organisations

Sheets was designed with the needs of agile organisations in mind. AI features mean that you can tap into the right insights to make meaningful business decisions. A cloud-based architecture enables you to collaborate with anyone, anytime, anywhere. Compatibility with external systems, including Microsoft Office, removes the friction of working with multiple data sources. And built on top of Google’s infrastructure, Sheets gives you the freedom to create, while helping to keep your information secure.

Frictionless collaboration and information sharing

Whether you’re planning an event or sharing the latest revenue figures, Sheets makes it seamless for teams to work together. Easily add collaborators to projects, see changes as they occur, receive notifications for edits that happen while you’re away, and chat with colleagues in the same document. All changes are automatically saved as you make them. And with offline access, you can create, view, and edit files wherever and whenever.
